Game Breaks After Deleting Rodent Cage [ Edited ]

[nottsgman]

I've only recently got the pet stuff pack, and had this problem when deleting the cage. I didn't have any babies or other pets, just a single young adult sim.

the only way I found around it was to get rid of the rodent first by releasing it, after that it let me delete the cage without a problem.

Could someone create a thread in the bug forum ?

This is what happened to me too! I thought it was a mod issue, but I guess not. What happened in my game was my pet rat died because he never needed to be fed, then I sold the cage. But when I went back to live mode, my game was frozen and I had to force quit because I couldn't even exit my game. I had to roll back my save to before he died and save him, otherwise my save was broken. I had two young adult sims, and no babies. One of my sims is pregnant though.

Update: I removed my mods folder, repaired my game, and created a new save. I made a single sim who owns 4 rodent cages. I played for a couple days, and then I sold one of the cages. My game completely broke. It was frozen and I couldn't click anything, but sound was still playing. I couldn't quit the game. I couldn't even go to task manager to quit the game. I had to restart my computer to get out of it.

So you don't need to have babies or a pregnant sim for this to happen.

I guess this is an issue in others games. Hmm weird how the rodent cage can do such harm to your game. Please fix soon

Wow this is quite scary. I've had a rodent cage in a household with two babies for a long time now, good thing I had no intention on moving or deleting the cage but it is excellent to know that it would cause an issue.
